What should I do when I meet my sister-in-law in Red Mansions?

Since today is the girl's birthday, the Lin family has a lot of excitement. Lin Ruhai naturally attaches great importance to her precious daughter's Fangchen, and ordered the cooks to prepare a lot of food very early, and found a small theater troupe. A little congratulations.

Because he is a big man, he doesn't like to entertain guests, and he doesn't make much noise. He only regards it as a reunion of father and daughter.

Although Daiyu is in charge of the family affairs now, she still doesn't care much about these things, but early in the morning, there are little girls in the house to pay her birthday wishes, and the stewards and the stewardesses from all over the place come to wait at the gate of the courtyard. Then, Daiyu heard about it, and hurriedly asked everyone to avoid it.She is a small family, how can she be so frivolous?

Naturally, these people couldn't be so rude, so they kowtowed at the gate of the courtyard, outside the second gate, and they did their best.

Daiyu asked for a reward, and asked the cook to prepare wine and food, which was meant to congratulate her.The gift-giver from Xue's family didn't arrive until the exact day.After breakfast, Daiyu heard a rumor from outside,

"The Xue family sent someone here."

"Let me in."

Before Daiyu opened her mouth, she immediately opened her mouth impatiently. Daiyu glared at her, but didn't stop her.

After the two young daughters-in-law came in, they first knelt down on the ground and paid homage to Daiyu's birthday, and Daiyu hurriedly got someone to help her up.

After taking the gift list from the Xue family and the gloomy wood and golden silk box, put them on the table, and then asked a few words,

"How's your wife? How's your aunt?" and other gossips, and people rewarded the two of them again, and then they withdrew.

Daiyu opened the box, but inside was a white jade hairpin with two butterflies embedded in it, looking as if it was about to fly, very clever, which made Daiyu very happy.Three or five red beans were placed aside.Daiyu, who was provoked, hastily closed the box.

"This person is really unreliable!"

Daiyu said angrily in her heart.

Xueyan and the others were wondering what the Xue family had sent, but they looked up and saw their own girl's face flushed, so they had no choice but to pretend not to know.

This day is the Huachao Festival, and there are girls and daughters-in-law wearing drapery hats appearing in the Yuelao Temple and Xiuyun Temple all day long.

Although he knew it was impossible, Xue Pan still fantasized about taking Daiyu out.

Xue Pan returned home in the evening, and after eating and drinking, he gave him Baoqin and other gadgets as gifts for the Flower Festival.

Bao Qin looked at the hairpins and hairpins of various colors and was really happy. She thanked her elder brother with a smile and Yanyan, and then tilted her head to look at Xue Biao.

Xue Biao originally prepared a foreign pocket watch, but his elder brother prepared a lot of them. Fortunately, his gift is more novel than it is, and it will not be too overwhelming.

Baoqin is a playful person, and she also loves her brother's pocket watch. After thanking the two brothers, she played with it for a while, and finally put it away.

"Brother, what have you prepared for your future sister-in-law? Go tell us and let us hear."

"What can there be, but those jewelry."

When Xue Pan talked about this topic, he felt a little bit shy.Xue Biao is a man's family, so he didn't pay much attention to these things, but Bao Qin looked carefully, and the eldest brother's cheeks turned red!

She was amused in her heart, but she still pretended to be serious.Soon, everyone changed the topic and talked about Xue Biao's achievements this time.

Although Erjia entered, it was still out of a hundred. Xue Biao was obviously very dissatisfied, but Xue Pan felt that this was very good.He is still young, if his ranking is too good, it will obviously cause some unnecessary troubles.

Moreover, since Xue Biao entered the second class, more people have become friends with Xue Jiapan.Xue Biao is young and unmarried, so he is obviously a good candidate for a son-in-law.And there are only widowed mothers and younger sisters, and there are not so many internal affairs, which is very good!

Not long after Mei Hanlin resigned from the Xue family, he sought a foreign job, and the whole family took up the job, leaving only the second son and his wife in Beijing.

Now that Xue Biao has passed the exam, the second son of the Mei family who has always been concerned about the Xue family is naturally unhappy.After sighing and booing at night, he went back to the study and fell asleep.

Xue Biao didn't know about these gossips, he was busy preparing for the palace examination, which was of the utmost importance, even though there would be no major entanglements in the general palace examination, who wouldn't want to perform well in front of the emperor and all the adults? Bundle.If he got the favor of that person, wouldn't it be easy for him to get promoted and make a fortune?

Xue's family also kept a low profile about Xue Biao's winning. The family celebrated by eating and drinking, and rewarded the servants of the mansion with a month's money, and it was over.

Aunt Xue looked at her nephew's grades so well, and thought that in the future he would be able to earn a fortune for his younger siblings, and felt uncomfortable.But looking at his younger brother and sister's sickness, he calmed down those thoughts again.

In the middle of the night, Xue Pan brought people to the back garden of his house, where dozens of Kongming lanterns were prepared.Of course, fireworks are also indispensable.

Daiyu led the snow geese and stood in the warm pavilion, looking out constantly.The master and servant thought that there was little movement, but they didn't know that the old nuns around Daiyu were afraid that she would lose face, so they sent the servants early to clear the place for her.

Daiyu thought she was alert at the beginning, but after thinking about it for a while, she realized what was going on, and she also thought that she was funny. In her own home, she was like a thief.

Thinking of this, she became a little angry with that person again. It's all his tricks, it's really annoying!

While Daiyu was still thinking wildly, she heard the exclamation of the snow geese behind her,

"Girl, look!"

Daiyu didn't bother to scold her, and looked up.Sure enough, a few Kongming lanterns were raised outside, and there were some paintings on them. The distance was too far, but they couldn't be seen clearly.

Before Daiyu could ask again, Xueyan took out the clairvoyance that Xue's mansion gave her and handed it to Daiyu.Daiyu took off her sleeves and looked around.

"He Fangchen's Joy"

A tinge of shame and sweetness flashed in her heart, and she continued to look at the next one, but it was Xue Pan's usual painting method, and she recognized it at a glance.

Then there are fireworks, all kinds of them, combined together, it is a whole pattern, which is also the meaning of celebrating her birthday.

After making a fuss for half an hour, it was over.Daiyu put on her cloak and went back holding the stove.

That night, Daiyu, who always thought she was insomnia, had a rare good sleep.

Although Xue Pan was a little apprehensive, wondering if he could win Daiyu's favor, he was actually quite proud of it.This tired midnight, there will always be some effect.After dismissing all the servants, Xue Pan also went back to rest with his tired body.Someone will naturally deal with the follow-up matter, so be careful, if you accidentally cause a fire, it's really not fun.

Xue Biao is busy preparing for the palace examination here, and everyone dare not disturb him, but the Xue family can't let it go, those wives are busy visiting Mrs. Xue and Xue Biao's mother. To inquire about his marriage.

Naturally, Xue Wang would not make up her mind, but seeing her younger siblings looking so healthy, she could only brace herself to deal with it.Unexpectedly, today, the mansion ushered in an unexpected guest, Sister Feng.

"Auntie, I came here uninvited, but I'm bothering you!"

Sister Feng actually has very complicated feelings for Xue's family. She originally came here to join her, but now her life is getting better, and the bad thing is that the relationship with Jia's family is getting farther and farther. It really makes people feel Very upset.

This time, everyone in the Jia family heard that Xue Biao had passed the exam. One was to congratulate them, and the other was to ask the old lady's order to inquire about Xue Biao's marriage.

This Yingchun wedding was still a match made by my aunt, and now the second girl is doing very well.Er Yatou was a wooden person when she was in the mansion, and she wouldn't move even a prick of a needle, but now, she manages the mansion in such a way that people feel that she was underestimated before.

Since Yingchun's grandma and her family were sold out by the old lady, she has been tossing around in her own house, and no one has ever looked down upon her again.Of course, it is not known whether her husband helped her or not.In short, Yingchun is indeed living a happy life today, which is a fact.

"You girl, why are you being polite? When you were young, your aunt even changed your diaper."

Xue Wang said jokingly.

"Hey, how can my aunt say such a thing in front of Sister Qin, at least it's better to save some face for my niece."

Wang Xifeng looked at Baoqin who was covering her mouth and giggling, but she was not annoyed, she still laughed and said.

"Okay, you are an adult now, you really need to save some face!"

Everyone chatted and laughed a few more times, Wang Xifeng is a talker, wherever she is, there will naturally be excitement.Baoqin could sense that the two of them had some private things to say, so she found an excuse to go to see her mother and backed out.

Wang Xifeng felt that this Qin girl was no different from her own girl. If Tan girl was a legitimate daughter, the marriage would be even more attractive.

After hearing Wang Xifeng's words, Xue Wang's heart was a little bit moved. She had seen this Tan girl before, and she was really a good girl.It's just that this marriage with Jia's family, I'm afraid that her son of the Omen star will have objections.

After hesitating for a moment, she smiled,

"Feng girl, you also know that I'm just an aunt. I'm afraid I have to discuss this matter carefully with his mother before I can give you an answer. I'm not picking on the third girl. She is really a good girl and there is nothing wrong with her." Yes, it's just that I can't be the master alone..."

Sister Feng knows the elegant meaning after hearing the string song, so she also caters to her with a smile.The two stopped the topic and turned to talk about Baochai's son, Tangyuaner.

Seeing the flash of envy on Sister Feng's face, Wang Xue also said,

"Feng girl, you should take good care of your body, it's serious to be pregnant with a brother."

"Hey, why didn't I think about it, it's just that this matter is beyond everyone's control."

The displeasure in Wang Xifeng's heart disappeared in a flash, so she could only reply with a forced smile.

"That's true, but it's not bad to take good care of your body."

Wang Xue felt that this was her niece and daughter, so she said such intimate words.But I don't want to, will people like to listen to it.

Although Wang Xifeng felt that these words were not pleasant, she also knew they were good words, so she had to stand up and thank her again.

Xue Wang also noticed it immediately, and it was not appropriate, so he didn't say anything.He just kept persuading her to eat wine and vegetables.

In this February, it is not easy to get fresh seasonal vegetables, even if you have money, there is nowhere to buy them.Xue Pan bought several large warm houses in the suburbs of Beijing, which were exclusively for powerful families, and they were limited.Of course, this is the Xue family's business in name, but [-]% of the royal family is involved, making people afraid to take the Xue family's idea.

Xue Pan reserved a small greenhouse for his family to eat and give away to others. Since his family moved out from Jia's house, they had little contact with each other. Naturally, such a rare thing would not be sent to Jia's house.

Although Wang Xifeng didn't do things very smoothly, she didn't regret it. For such a thing, she went back with all the things Xue Wang had prepared for her eldest sister.

Of course, there are also gifts from the Xue family to the old ladies and wives, especially that precious Baoyu.

After hearing what her sister-in-law said, Mrs. Xue couldn't make up her mind. Girls in the Duke's mansion are so rare. Although she is a concubine, why would she want to marry the second wife of Xue's family?

She had a lot of doubts in her heart, but because of her sister-in-law, it was inconvenient to say some things, she just muttered that she wanted to ask her son's opinion.

Xue Wang's attitude was dispensable, so she naturally knew that she should have a lot of things to consider carefully, so she didn't intend to force her.

Xue Pan heard about this incident, but he knew some reasons.In order to build the Grand View Garden in the Jia Mansion, the personal purse of the private house was also deflated a lot.But how excitedly they wanted to let the empress return in glory, so everyone spent a lot of money.

But after visiting her relatives, the empress only rewarded some useless cloths and satins, and the huge deficit in the mansion could not be made up for.He has to support the empty frame of the Duke's Mansion, so life is even more difficult.

No, when Yingchun got married, it was the dowry money paid by the old lady herself, and she was tricked by Jia She and his wife to take away nearly half of it. I'm afraid it's a joke for Jia's family to marry their daughter.

No, the days are becoming more and more difficult now. Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang are paying more and more attention to Tanchun, who is becoming more and more capable. Moreover, Mother Jia regrets it very much and married Yingchun.

Thinking of Yingchun's marriage, Mother Jia thought of the wealthy Xue family. If Tanchun can marry into Xue's family, even if it is the second wife, the money will not be old or young!
